Bourne Supremacy

Comments

Roland Cooke

Best one of the series, although The Bourne Legacy, with Hawkeye, is really good, underrated.

The thing that disappointed me about this movie was the fridging of Marie. She's a major character in the books, and Franka Potente deserved better.

Michael Soukup

Loved this film but yes Marie’s death was sad but probably necessary to get Bourne to go track them down.

Every kid that had a paper rout in the 80s or earlier knows the kind of damage you can cause with some rolled up paper. Personally, I enjoyed Legacy quite a lot.

Hawkeye lol. I guess I always just saw that one as Renner franchise shopping. Obviously that's not fair but it was right around the same time as the first Avengers. He was famously cast in MI:4 to replace Cruise in future films and obviously that didn't happen! I'm glad that Hawkeye did work out for him and obviously he is an amazing actor. Whether or not we do it on the channel, I will check it out.

During your preamble, you were rightly extolling the merits of the Damon / Greengrass collaboration, that their commitment to the franchise wasn't just a re-hash cash grab. While the third movie (Ultimatum) is maybe weaker narratively than the first two, it's not without its merits, including some amazing set pieces. However 'Jason Bourne', the most recent entry, felt to me exactly that - a re-hash cash grab.

There's also a prequel series 'Treadstone'. I bounced off it the first time around, but I've always intended to give it a second shot at some point.

NGL I think I like the third one the best - it has a lot going for it. It's definitely strongly watchable if nothing else.

The music at the end is “Extreme Ways” by Moby. I prefer the cleaner style of the first movie but think this film is just as good. I had a rough time seeing this in theaters because I was sick but still ended up going and the shaky cam was killer. I missed the end of the car chase and meeting the daughter that time since the car chase did me in. I remember very little from the last two movies, but wouldn’t mind re-watching them. I’ll probably end up re-watching them anyway after we watch the third one.

I remember liking what I saw of Treadstone when it aired, but it was one of those not being available on streaming, and it eventually aged out of my DVR before I got a chance to watch it

The shaky cam was a constant. I noticed it in a scene when Bourne was just sitting on a train. The only time it really got to me was the first fight (the rolled up magazine). After that, I think I settled into it.

I remember taking a photo of Julia Stiles from this movie with the chunky highlights to the hairdresser to get that look. I also remember an interview with Matt Damon where he said he grew up in Boston and was never as cold in his life as he was filming this movie in October in Moscow.

Heh, I wonder how he'd feel about the midwest right now! It must be so dang cold there. She rocked those highlights and I bet you did too!
